Re: nice... Two thumbs up. That's incredibly awesome, and a lot of fun. Very cool that the world still has a few people out there that write nifty stuff -- just because they can.

Thanks for the kind words. I still enjoy programming occasionally, especially when there is no real purpose. You might like the 'spam story' I just created. A little shot at humor using the current spam stats that shows just how ridiculous the problem is:

kudos:14 | I'll read it in a bit (messing with PCs right now). If you want ridiculous, try these stats (I work over at Hotmail, by the way) -- if drinking/eating anything, please remove from mouth/finish swallowing prior to reading the below paragraph.
We received 3.5 billion Emails a day at Hotmail. On average, 93% are determined to be spam. Therefore, about 7% of all Email on the 'net at this point is "legitimate."

| Oh I have no trouble believing that at all. Mine runs about the same percentage wise but certainly not that high of a number. Right now 94% of what I get is junk mail.
For me it's gone way past irritating and has now reached the point of just being ridiculous.
